Man held over loyalist feud murder

A man has been arrested in connection with a murder linked to the bitter loyalist feud.

Craig McCausland, 20, was shot at his girlfriend’s house in north Belfast last month. He died later in hospital.

The PSNI confirmed a man was being questioned in connection with the case.

The loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force is suspected of carrying out the murder as part of its feud with the splinter Loyalist Volunteer Force.

The UVF is thought to have carried out all four murders in the feud – the latest on Monday – in a bid to wipe-out its rivals.
